Houston Texas-based MC and rapper Milton Powell aka Big Pokey, collapsed and died while performing onstage at a bar in neighboring Beaumont late Saturday night this weekend at the age of 45.
A dramatic footage from the night of the concert shows Big Pokey gasping into the microphone mid-lyric while rapping at the Pour 09 Bar.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends. #RIPBigPokey
